Many people would reason that the quality of a person’s life is more important than the sanctity of it‚ and as Dr. Jack Krevorkian states in the film “You Don’t Know Jack”‚ “Who cares what people think‚ It’s how the patient feels.” Ladies and gentlemen‚ an individual’s ability to make rational decisions in situations of trauma is explored
